I've been looking for a new baseball mitt for a few months. I've looked at sports stores, online shops, and Wal-Mart and they ranged in price from $249.00 to $49.99. I'm frugal so I just couldn't bring myself to even pay $50 for a new glove, but I really want to play catch with this kid I know.
Well today Cody and I went to Leonard's Ace Hardware to get a paint sample because we will be repainting the exterior of our home soon. Leonard's was recently purchased and the new owner is making some pretty amazing changes to the store. Fortunately one of those changes is selling out the old toy's at 50% off... AND THERE IT WAS!!!
I got a brand new glove for $24.00! Now comes the hard part. Breaking it in. My dad always did that for me growing up, but fortunately I found this blog: https://www.wilson.com/en-us/blog/baseball/how-tos/how-break-glove-7-easy-steps
Wish me luck getting this thing broke in... I'll let you know how it goes real soon!
